It's a very well drawn image. Another good mix of simplicity and detail.
Though the title threw me for a minute. I've heard this thing called a film cartridge or cannister - with the most common term just being a roll of film. But I didn't realize it was called a film cassette anywhere. In fact, I thought that the overall definition of a cassette is something which has two internal reels, and therefore can be removed from the player without winding the tape back to its original reel first.

Since the author is Russian, they used a direct translation, because in Russian this thing's name comes from the same French word, that English is using almost exclusively for audio/video tape cases.
replyThat is interesting and exactly the kind of linguistic info that gets piques mine. Could you tell me the term, in Russian, that you mean? I'd love to do a deeper-dive on its etymology.
